ANOTHER STEP UP.
The Enlargement of the Carpet-House Of
Eastman. Schleicher & Lee-Seyen Floors
with an Area Of Four Thousand
Five Hundred Square Feet.

Whatever may have been said of indianapolis
concerning other lines Of trade, her carpet and
wallpaper houses have held. of late years,
always conspicuous position. In the exhibit
OF draperies, carpets and wall decorations this
city has taken rank along with the more preten-
tious metropolitan marts of the country. The
comparatively new house of Eastman Schleicher
q Lee has held place in this respect which is
suggestive of highly cultured taste, for,
scarcely display window on Washington street
has been more admired by or attractive to the
throng of passers by. And the windows gave
but mere glimpse of the elegant goods which
frelghted tho interior. Soon after the opening
OF the new house it became a source of regret to

made to secure more commodous apart
ments, and, at last, that end has
been accomplished. The sale Of the Brown
ing & Sloan building, adjacent to their present
location, enabled them to secure the upper floors
of this extensive business block. The work of
connecting the rooms has just been completed.
Their original store comprised five floors 22x10O,
and the two additional floors are each 30x125,
thus giving them a total floor area OF 1850
square feet. which is perhaps the largest amount
of space occupied by any single exclusively
tai. house of the character in the United States.
The new rooms have been fitted up in first-class
style, with polished oak floors, are we'll lighted,
and made accessible by means of two elevators.
In the rear of the carpetroom is the consumma-
ton of an original idea, and one which will be
fully appreciated by the patrons Of the house.

The Weir resolution. adopted by the Senate

his term and that of Director Wilson expired
with the adjournment of the Legislature. He

elect his successor because they we're afraid to
bring the matter to a vote lest the Republicans
would get control. notwithstanding the two ma

thought there were Democratic Senators who
wanted his place. He claimed to know of one
ia particular who was working for ono of the di

EXHIBIT OF RooKwoOD POTTERY.
The exhibit of Rookwoo pottery at the resi-
dence of Mrs. E. F. Hodges is attracting great
attention among the ladies of this city, the OBJ
ject of the exhibit not being mercenary one.

courage and educate love in art. The Rock
wood pottery, it will be remembered. was
originated by Mrs. Longworth- Nichols, and its
reputation is national. The lockwood exhibit
consists of fifty pieces each design being original
and without a duplicate, and each being as
unique in form as in color and ornamentation.
The shades of color are quite indescribabie.
The collection embraces ewers, jugs, rose jars,
jardinieres, candle sticks, ETC., in quaint de-
signs. some in dull. others in glazed finish One
very beautiful piece is a rose-jar, in dull finish
with grasses. Another is vase in mahogany
color, ornamented with flying wild geese. In ad-
diton to this, Professor Putzki. formerly of
Dresden. now of Chicago, who has class in this
city engaged in the art of decorating ware. ex-
hibits fine collection of work done by himself
and students. In this collection, among the
| most beautiful pieces is large PLAGUE of ilacs

SUING AN INSURANCE CO

SUING AN INSURANCE COMPANY.
The German Insurance and Savings Institn.s-an
of Quincy, ILL.,, has been sued for $4,000 by
George H. Rehm and Anton Van DENSE, of this
CITY, The plaintiffs are engaged in the insurance
business here. In April, 1885, they allege that
they entered into contract with the Quincy
company, whereby they were to become their
agents, and have as their territory all that part
of the United States east of the Mississippi
river. They went to work canvassng the terri
tory, and after they had done business for some
time, they were notified that they would not be
allowed to insure property in any Of the old
slave States, or in this State the city of New
York. The agents were to receive commission
of 10 per cent. on all premiums in their territory
and allege that by depriving them of the right to
insure in the territory named the company TO-
lated their contract and took away their best
paying territory The case will be heard during
the next term of The Superior Court.
